Are you ready, kids? I can’t hear you!! It’s a statement your kids know by heart, and you’re probably well aware of it, but when it comes to throwing a truly immersive and amazing Spongebob party, it’s a true question!
So, instead of worrying about whether or not you’re up to the chore of party planning, have a look at these great Spongebob party ideas and you’ll realize that the perfect party is well within your reach!
And, if you’re on a budget, our spending tracker and party planning checklist are also useful tools for keeping your party both reasonable and well-organized.
Party Decorations
Without some adorable Spongebob birthday décor, it wouldn’t be an incredible birthday celebration. However, cool decorations do not have to be expensive. What you’ll need is:
Welcome Sign
What better way to greet your guests at your Spongebob-themed party than with the classic, clam-shaped Krusty Krab sign? It’s not just an instantly recognizable homage, but it’ll also gratify any long-time Spongebob fan.
Balloons
By releasing some amusing Spongebob balloons, your guests will be able to not only marvel at the lovely face of their favorite sea sponge, but also do what kids do best: turn their presence into a game or activity! Countless celebrations have degraded into “don’t let the balloon touch the ground” games, and balloons are always a hit!
Backdrops
Display a fishing net on the wall, complete with various fishing equipment and Spongebob references. Fans of Spongebob will recall the pivotal episode where Spongebob and Patrick play hooky by adding a few fishing hooks!
To remind your guests of the iconic ripped pants episode, put a pair of shredded swim trunks or a lifeguard floater on there as well!
Jellyfish
There’s little to no way to have a Spongebob party without at least one jellyfish. They’re easy to make with paper mache and streamers, or you can simply buy decorations in their shape. You don’t have to duplicate the complete Jellyfish Fields, but it’s a fun and creative way to tie your theme together.
Tissue Pineapple
Pineapples are a given at a Spongebob party, so why not go all out and display tissue copies for all to see? While you could certainly make your own version of these tropical fruits, you could likely purchase something comparable at any party store.
Photo Props
Set up some fun Spongebob-themed picture props for your guests! You might even get a polaroid camera for your guests to take home as a nice little party treat.
Birthday Cakes
While numerous molds can assist you in producing your own Spongebob cake, unless you are confident in your baking abilities, don’t hesitate to contact your local bakery for assistance. If a Spongebob cake seems a little too blatant, you can always make a huge Krabby Patty or depict another character or show reference instead.
Krabby Patties are required for a Spongebob Party! Now, while sliders are an easy way to pay homage to the program, you could go a step further and make cupcakes in the shape of the iconic burger. You can make a multilayered cupcake that looks like the famous sandwich with just food coloring and some patient cutting abilities.
Alternatively, simple cake pops will wow your guests! Cake pops are a simple treat to make and a crowd-pleaser, with the only difficult part being the decoration!
Recreate Spongebob’s pineapple home for a terrific Spongebob-themed design, or if you’re feeling extra creative and have some serious baking talents, attempt to represent the character in each treat.
Party Games and Activities
Without some amusing Spongebob birthday games, it wouldn’t be an incredible birthday party. Prepare the following!
Treasure Hunt
Is it one for all or all for one? You can ask your guests an age-old question by including them in a treasure hunt! Set up a map for your guests and hide some of the Flying Dutchman’s loot around the property, and you’ll be sure to have a memorable party. Make certain that no one’s compass is set to “Weest!”
Coconut Bowling
Set your visitors up with a game of coconut bowling, inspired by Spongebob’s island look. You can buy little pins or make your own by knocking them down with imitation coconuts found in the island department of any party store.
Pinata
Pinatas are a guaranteed form of amusement for any celebration, and because a Spongebob party is bound to be a popular theme these days, finding a Spongebob themed pinata should not be too difficult! However, if you know how to make paper mache, you can make your own DIY version.
Party Favors
When it comes to buying in quantity, a favor pack is probably the simplest and least stressful option to offer each of your guests with a small gift to take home without causing unnecessary stress!
If you aren’t as enthusiastic about Spongebob as your children or their friends are, a favor pack is a simple way to ensure that you don’t make any mistakes while distributing small gifts to each of your guests while staying true to the Spongebob theme.
Alternatively, the Flying Dutchman can provide your guests with tiny treasure chests to keep their favors in. This favor goes well with the treasure hunt activity idea and adds to your guests’ overall immersion experience.
SpongeBob Party Invitations
Invite the entire Spongebob crew! This basic design contains all of the necessary information in a printable version, but it can also be sent as a digital e-vite if you choose to go paperless!
